Dragging Jokowi’s name, Marzuki Alie calling AHY is unethical

JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com – The former secretary general of the Democratic Party, Marzuki Alie, evaluated that the president general of the Democratic Party, Agus Harimurti Yudhoyono (AHY), has no ethics when dragging the name of President Joko Widodo to the internal conflicts of the party.

“He is a young man, well. But starting to be even wiser. Especially speaking in a public space. He can speak but he cannot mention the name of the president. A clarification for the president, there are no ethics,” Marzuki was quoted as saying in Tribunnews. .com, Tuesday (2/2/2021).

Marzuki assessed that AHY should solve the problem internally by naming parties that have been shown to be involved in a movement seeking to remove him from the party leadership.

He also assessed that if Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono (SBY), who is currently in the Jokowi position, would not want to be treated as he is now by being dragged into internal party conflict.

“What if SBY had been treated like this? It’s not good either. It’s definitely impossible for Pak Jokowi to answer this (accusation). It doesn’t fit either. If there’s person A, person B, just point to the nose. And you have to hand it over. Do not accuse the people around you, ”Marzuki continued.

He then shared his experiences when he was secretary general of the Democratic Party. At that time, he was also about to be deposed.

But he reacted internally and did not take the conflict externally. Therefore, he asked AHY to wisely handle internal party conflicts.

“At that time there were many problems, wanting to overthrow the Secretary General. I have never responded with news like this. Only work. It shows that our work is good. We showed it and the result was that we won the elections at that time, ”said Marzuki.

Earlier, AHY said, there was a government official who was involved in efforts to remove him from the presidency of the president general.

“The non-partisan cadre is a high-ranking government official who, once again, we asked President Joko Widodo for confirmation and clarification,” AHY said.
